Chris,  

This is a hard habit to break people of.  We are running HP-UX alongside
AIX at our shop.  I regularly hear that we have "UNIX and AIX" - so much
so that I've given up trying to correct them...  :-)

The AIX I knew deserved also to be classified as "UNIX".

One possible name server configuration could have been - or could be now
- to have the bulk of the corporate names managed by a dedicated,
typically traditional UNIX, machine, but to have the "mainframe"
environment supported by a Communications Server (CS) IP name server
linked into the higher level name server. At the very least the CS IP
name server could act as a cache.

Ted,
In that particular shop, a pair of UNIX (or was it AIX?) servers were
used 
as the corporate DNS servers. All we ran on the mainframe were the usual

suspects: FTP, SMTP, Telnet. Even though it was (and still is) the most 
important data processing environment of the company, the mainframe was 
never big enough to handle a DNS service task for the entire
corporation.

Regards,
Ulrich Krueger
